I’m seeing a lot of chat about the migration of “reddit brand” concepts like AMA and IAmA. We should probably come up with alternatives? Who’s got some suggestions?
I’d rather say that I don’t think Reddit gets any ownership of concepts that community members thought up and popularized. Most of us are still those same community members, I have no interest in granting Reddit ownership of our culture.
@socialjusticewizard Sure, i see your point! My fear is that if someone outside of the fediverse sees a headline “X to host AMA on Kbin” that might still lead them to Reddit, because they’ve never heard of Kbin…
I’ve seen AMA threads on 4chan, I don’t think it’s something reddit-exclusive anymore. It’s just a simple acronym for “Ask Me Anything” for online interviews.
Two mags already exist here:
